Instructions

Before you start, ensure you have all your ingredients, including fresh chicken wings, avocado oil, and seasonings like garlic, onion powder, paprika, and turmeric. Having everything ready will make the process smooth and easy. Don’t forget to prepare your baking tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Whisk together the granulated garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, turmeric powder, salt, pepper, chili powder, and avocado oil in a bowl. This will create a flavorful seasoning blend to coat the chicken wings. Ensure all the seasonings are evenly distributed in the oil to give every wing that perfect flavor.
Take your chicken wings and brush each one generously with the seasoned oil mixture. Be sure to coat the wings evenly on both sides so that every bite is bursting with flavor. This step is key to getting that crispy, golden texture when baking.
Once the wings are coated, sprinkle a generous amount of parmesan cheese over the top. Then, place the wings on a baking rack set on a baking tray and bake at 400°Fahrenheit (200°Celsius) for 40 minutes, flipping halfway. This will make the wings crispy and golden with a cheesy, savory finish.

Notes

For extra crispy wings: After baking, you can broil the wings for a couple of minutes to get them extra crispy on top. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning, as broiling can cook them quickly. Baking powder is an option for a more crispy wing.
Add your favorite seasonings: Feel free to adjust the seasoning blend to your taste. If you like a bit more spice, add hot sauce or paprika.
Use a wire rack for even cooking: Cooking the wings on a baking rack allows hot air to circulate all around them, helping them cook more evenly and get that perfect crispiness.
Customize the cheese: If you’re not a fan of Parmesan, you can swap it for another hard cheese like Pecorino Romano for a slightly different flavor.
Tossing: If brush is not available, you can toss the wings in a mixing bowl with the seasoning to coat them evenly.
